You haven’t lived until you’ve had a biopsy!
Ok, this sounds strange, but people my age at the Stammtisch regularly ask how the prostrate is as a greeting.
How would I know if there was a problem?
I say. “Just fine, how’s yours?” And order a beer by the way.
The what now? Is it too much to ask that you stick to English? Even google doesn’t find that one.
I had one with a local anaesthetic so just routine.
An old friend in England had one but the NHS does not give a local anaesthetic
Advice for the OP.
Insist on an ultrasound check, external, painless and gives a lot of info.
It’s a word in Romandie too, exactly the same spelling. It is a table in the local cafe or bistro where the locals sit and meet their buddies. Very common in small villages, even our favouriteItalian restaurant.
No anaesthetic for me either. They took eight …
Translates as “tribe table” which is meaningless in English.
So don’t say you are not learning something here on SwissForum.

Don’t worry Omtatsat, they only do the biopsy if the suspect cancer. An enlargement prostate is a normal consequence of getting old. There are a number of treatments so listen to your Dr.
Bastards…
Yah
Yes I am a stammtisch regular in several Beizli, german swiss word for a small reataurant is Beiz, since a spoken language feel free to spell as you want
From Marton’s post I’m guessing it’s like a locals’ corner in any given bar, yes?

Them’s the words I was looking for……
But why you have to use multiple words to describe something when one word is enough is a mystery to me.

Yes already had ultraschall and MRI and blood tests. I take tablets to relax the prostate so it does not obstruct the urine. But there is always the thought one has to have the prostate removed.
If it comes to that it is no longer a major procedure. Keyhole surgery done by robot. You’d miss it, but you’d also miss being able to pee.
Ignore internet wonder solutions, take your pills and discuss any side effects with the professionals.
Apparently if you live long enough, and you are male, you will get either an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer.
